Introduction: Acute Heart Failure is frequently decompensated by pulmonary infection, but the diagnosis of pulmonary infection sometimes is difficult in these patients due to similar signals and clinical symptoms in both pathologies. Furthermore, when it is possible the diagnosis of pulmonary infection, physicians may have difficult to determine etiology and delaying antibiotic therapy. Procalcitonin (PCT) have been used like a biomarker to determine the period of use of antibiotics in patients with acute respiratory infections. It is specific for bacterial infections and it have showed as a marker of severity infection and may help to determine interruption period of antibiotic therapy in a safety way for the patient. Aim: Evaluate levels of PCT related to interruption of antibiotics in patients with decompensated acute heart failure (DAHF) with suspected bacterial pulmonary infection. Methods: In this pilot project will be included around 100 patients, randomized in two groups: group A (PCT levels may guide the interruption of antibiotic at day 5) or group B (antibiotic period will be determined by the physician without the knowledge of PCT levels). Will be collected laboratorial and clinical data at days 0,3 and 5. Both groups will be compared to evaluate PCT levels and total period of antibiotic therapy, hospitalization and readmission in 30 days. This study will determine the sensibility/specificity of PCT in patients with DAHF.
This is a study of up to 275 participants from birth to 12 months who are having a chest x-ray while a patient at the Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital in Blantyre, Malawi. Participants will have thermal pictures of their chest taken by trained study staff using a Smartphone and a FLIR ONE attachment. Thermal images will be read by trained study staff to determine if bacterial pneumonia is present. Results of the thermal images will then be compared to the results of the chest X-ray. If additional images of the chest are available, additional thermal images will be taken of the same location within 24 hours of the other image.
The purpose of this study is to better define the intensive care unit population at highest risk for developing Hospital-Acquired and Ventilator-Associated Bacterial Pneumonia (HABP/VABP).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of delafloxacin compared to moxifloxacin in the treatment of adult patients with community-acquired pneumonia.
The purpose of this study is to determine the cure rate from ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) caused by Gram negative bacteria when administering add on nebulized amikacin to intravenous antibiotics compared to intravenous antibiotics alone.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of omadacycline as compared to moxifloxacin in the treatment of adults with community-acquired bacterial pneumonia.
This study aims to compare treatment with a fixed-dose combination (FDC) of imipenem/relebactam/cilastatin (IMI/REL) with a FDC of piperacillin/tazobactam (PIP/TAZ) in participants with hospital-acquired or ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia (HABP or VAPB, respectively). The primary hypothesis is that IMI/REL is non-inferior to PIP/TAZ in the incidence rate of all-cause mortality.
This study is a randomized, open-label phase I study. The primary objective of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of ME1100 in subjects with mechanically ventilated bacterial pneumonia (MVBP). The secondary objective of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of ME1100 for the treatment of subjects with MVBP to assess the safety and tolerability of ME1100.
A multi-center, retrospective study of cases of serious bacterial infections including complicated Urinary Tract Infection (cUTI) or Acute Pyelonephritis (AP), Hospital Acquired Bacterial Pneumonia (HABP), Ventilator Acquired Bacterial Pneumonia (VABP), and/or bacteremia caused by Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE)
